Altitude settings
Smoothing: Smoothing is useful if you feel that the displayed
®
altitude value appears to be too erratic. Smoothing applies an
averaging filter and may cause the displayed altitude value to
respond more slowly to changes. You can turn altitude smoothing
off or on.
Update ascent rate: Set the Watch to update the period at
®
which the ascent rate is calculated. You can choose intervals of 30
seconds, or 1, 10, 30, or 60 minutes. Set this feature shorter for
faster vertical activities such as skiing or longer for slower
vertical activities such as climbing.
Hands-Free settings
Hands-free features automate chronograph features, freeing you to
focus on your workout instead of operating your Watch. Even when
enabled, you can still take manual splits without affecting the
hands-free operation. Configure the following hands-free settings:
Auto split: This feature enables the chronograph to
®
automatically take splits based on elapsed distance or time. For
instance, you can configure the Watch to take a split every 10
minutes, or, if you set Auto Split to 1 MI, then the Watch will
automatically take a split every mile.
Auto start: This feature enables the chronograph to start when
®
you start moving. It may take a few seconds for the GPS-3D
Sensor to detect movement, causing a slight delay in start time.
60
Auto stop: This feature enables the chronograph to stop when
®
you stop moving. It may take a few seconds for the GPS-3D
Sensor to detect that you have stopped moving, causing a slight
delay in stop time.
Sync timer & chrono: This feature allows you to set the
®
interval timer and the chronograph to start and stop
simultaneously so you can record chronograph data when you use
the interval timer. The completion of an interval in Interval
Timer Mode will cause the Watch to take a split in the
chronograph. Use this feature if you want a record of your
performance for each interval in your workout. Each interval
corresponds to one lap or segment in Lap Data Mode.
You must turn the sync timer & chrono setting off if you want the
timer to switch to Chronograph Mode at the end of a countdown
in Basic Timer Mode.
Watch settings

Night-Mode® feature: When enabled, the INDIGLO® night-
®
light turns on when you press any button. This feature disables
itself after eight hours.
Hourly chime: When enabled, the Watch will chime at the top of
®
every hour.
Button beep: When enabled, the Watch will emit a beep when
®
you press any button.
